| What size aquarium, tank, or bowl do you have your fish (Bettas mainly) in? I have my betta in a 10 gallon. I got him after I got my mollies..but my betta killed them. I first wanted to have my betta in a community tank and I tried him with my mollies and he killed both..and my corry. So he is lucky..he gets a tank all to himself. My 5 goldies are in a 29 gallon. (2 of them are 2yrs old and about 5 inches from our broken and dirty pond and the other three I recently bought and are well adjusted. I choose out the prettiest of the feeder goldfish. An orange and white one, a black and orange one, and a brown one. (I got the brown one because I had seen him every single time I went to petsmart and he was the biggest of them all so I thought he deserved a home) It must be a pain for the people getting out specific feeder goldfish out of an overcrowded tank, haha. But I make them do it :P So tell me what size tanks are your fish in, what fish, and how many? What about your Bettas? Armour: I didn't realize who was doing it until there was no other way my corry could have died and had its fins and tail eaten off. The corry normally stayed at the bottom and every once in a while swam around but this morning it was dead (2 days after getting him) My mollies died I believe by my betta too but I can not be for sure. My betta is the regular kind. The 3$ ones. I got a purple one because it was the prettiest of them all...and THOUGHT he would not be aggresive to my mollies because it was calm...but I was mistaken. |

| i dont think a betta would kill your mollies or cory, but if he did he must be pretty mean, they normally only attack other male bettas, or fish that closely resemble them. but yeah, my betta is going to be in a 2.5 gallon with my kohli loach. whenever i get the money to. i have a 10 gallon with 3 neon tetras(soon to be 8) and 2 male fancy guppies(i will be adding a couple more, they are beautiful[= ). i also have hornwort plants in it. i will be upgrading to a 30 gallon freshwater tank once i get a job and can pay for it. lol. i'm getting a crowntail betta, what kind do you have? |

| My betta passed away today (Im heart broken over it ) but he was in a 5 gallon. I think its just such a perfect size for a betta. My other tanks are both 29 gallons. In one I have 2 mollies, 1 pleco, 1 skunk loach, 1 queen loach and more platies than I can count (3 of them just had more fry. I thought I separated out all the males, but I guess one was hiding.) The second has 2 yoyo loaches, 1 siamese algae eater, 1 flying fox, 8 neon tetras and 4 von rio tetras. I do know that my tanks are a bit over stocked. We are working on getting a bigger tank (100+gallons) and will be moving the pleco, siamese algae eater, and will separate the platies by gender. |
